It's been a ten-year wait for Fallout 3, which hits retailers in PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 form next week, and developer Bethesda has now started discussing its future plans.

Executive producer Todd Howard states that three years is a good space between games, leading Reuters to suggest that Bethesda could deliver more post-apocalyptic role-playing goodness with Fallout 4 in three years, or 2011.

"Ten years between Fallout is a bit long, but I think there's this nostalgia factor," Howard explained. "I think it's good for people to miss things."

Former property holder Interplay is currently working on a Fallout MMO, which must have $30 million in funding and enter "full-scale" development by April 2009, with a release no later than April 2014, or Interplay loses the rights.

That seems like a stretch on Reuters' part. No where does he actually mention Fallout 4, just that a gap of three years between games is a nice amount and that ten years is pretty long.

Now that it is in a successful format, and a new game play style, I fully expect at least two sequels to Fallout 3.
